    [​IMG] I was just wondering, I did read BOM is around for 9 years now, and I was wondering of all topics are still online (In archives or something?) Or are some of the real old posts removed? and if, how far back does it go?

    The forums have only been around for just over 4 years now, about a month before I was registered or so.

    AFAIK they're all still up here. Best if you try yourself, profile page and change the setting so it shows all topics regardless of age.
    I had quite a bit of fun browsing through BGII forum topics from when the game wasnt out yet and people were speculating a lot :)

    Every single post from the beginning up till now is still up. We have lost some in a board crash a couple of years ago, but I think that's about it. Whatnots has been archived recently, but the other forums still contain all their posts.

    An interesting site that may bring back memories to some:
    http://web.archive.org/collections/web.html. Search for "http://www.sorcerers.net".
    The functions on it are limited, but it's easy to see how the SP then had been so different from the present one.

    It doesn't go back far enough to show you the really interesting differences before the previous design. ;)

    @Tal
    If you say so... :)
    Seeing the boards grow as they have is a great pleasure nonetheless.

    Jaguar, and thank God I noticed that. I had no idea I blocked access to there, and I've been wondering for a while now why Google doesn't index the boards now that it can. Major DUH.
